Categories

Cleanliness
9
Generally praised as very clean and well maintained (multiple comments: 'Super sauber', 'Pulizia e organizzazione'); no major cleanliness complaints reported.
Service
8.9
Staff frequently described as very friendly and attentive ('sehr nettes Personal', 'personale estremamente fighevole'), though a few mentions note some less-capable or unfriendly employees and occasional lapses in enforcing SPA rules.
Location
9.2
Location repeatedly highlighted as excellent: quiet, in nature, beautiful views and convenient for relaxation ('in mezzo alla natura', 'Location perfetta', 'localisation et le calme').
Room Quality
7.6
Mixed feedback: some rooms praised as spacious with lovely balconies, others noted as outdated, dark (north-facing), in need of renovation (especially third floor) and occasional noise from above; minor issues like missing bidet reported.
Amenities
8.6
Wellness area, spa and pool are major strengths (large, pleasant, clean), but there are operational issues (saunas heated late, limited loungers, SPA rules inconsistently enforced) that reduce perfection.
Value for Money
8.2
Generally good value for guests appreciating the 3/4 pension and included benefits (Südtirol Card), though some feel dinner/price expectations for a 4-star hotel are not always met.
Food and Beverage
9.2
Consistently praised food: excellent cuisine, very good breakfasts and varied dinners with rich buffets; many comments single out the outstanding quality of meals.
Overall Experience
8.9
Overall very positive guest experience driven by food, spa and friendly staff; a few recurring negatives (room condition, sauna hours, occasional staff lapses) temper an otherwise strong stay.

Wunderschöner Familienkurzurlaub in Südtirol
Pros:

Ob als Paar oder als Familie - dank den zwei abgetrennten Wellnessbereichen ist das Hotel Almina perfekt für alle. Außerdem ist das Essen ausgezeichnet. Wir waren bereits zum vierten Mal da.

Cons:

Im Spielebereich sind einige kaputte Spielsachen, die ausgetauscht bzw. repariert werden sollten.

Pros:

Posizione cibo staff

Cons:

Pagare l acqua in brocca ai pasti considerando che l acqua del rubinetto è buona .Assenza di set nelle stanze con magari piccole creme e dischetti leva trucco.

Pros:

Nagyon kedves volt a személyzet, a reggeli bőséges csodálatos ízekkel. Nagyon jó, hogy több szauna is rendelkezésünkre áll, illetve hogy 14év alatt nem jöhettek be gyerekek a spa részlegre. Vacsoránál a személyzet rendkívül figyelmes volt.

Cons:

Első emeleti szobánk volt, reggelente és este a felettünk lévő emeleten folyamatosan olyan hangok jöttek mint mikor bútorokat tologatnak vagy pakolnak, de szerencsére nem sokáig.

Vacanza nel silenzio e nella natura
Pros:

Camera spaziosa con grande bagno, noi eravamo al 3 piano con soffitto mansardato e balcone molto graditi. Colazione abbondante sia dolce che salata con preparazione di uova e bacon al momento. Cena super con buffet di verdure, zuppe e sempre almeno due scelte di primi e secondi di carne e pesce e dolce, una sera pure buffet di dolci. Piscina e Spa grandi e pulite.

Cons:

Nella zona Spa occorrerebbe aggiungere più lettini, noi siamo arrivati a metà pomeriggio ed erano tutti occupati.
